chore(web): icon layout switcher with radio semantics

Replace the layout Select with a lean 28px segmented control: Rows3 /
Columns2 / Columns3 / Infinity icons on a quiet muted track, only the
active option filled. Each option carries a tooltip with a label and an
honest description of the ceiling semantics ("up to N columns when the
width allows").

The control is a proper radiogroup — roving tabindex, arrow-key
movement, aria-checked — restoring the single-choice semantics the
Select used to provide. Options derive from ViewContext's canonical
value list, and one exhaustive record maps each value to its icon and
wording, so a future column option fails to compile until both exist.

The Compact mode row now stays visible in multi-column layouts, shown
as on and locked (multi-column always renders compact tiles); the
stored preference is untouched and resurfaces at a single column.
